Thomas Hoepker

Heartland

Thomas Hoepker - worldwide known photographer and a member of MAGNUM Photos - introduces his series of black-and-white pictures, which was created 1963 as a photo-reportage for the Kristall periodical.

The black-and-white photos portray life in the USA in the mid Sixties and thematize the issues that influenced the country at the time. There is a particular focus on political events such as Kennedy‘s assassination, racial discrimination and the resurgence of patriotism. In expressive portraits, outstanding snapshots and sometimes extremely bizarre scenarios, Hoepker has succeeded in painting a picture of America in all its facets.
